As of now Vanagon windshields are available, usually they are Seafelight. If
no one buys them then don't expect them to be available when we need them. I
had a heck of a time getting a windshield for my Fox. BTW if your van is
worth anything you should have comprehensive insurance. With glass coverage
they will treat to a window when needed. Have the new seal in hand when they
arrive.

Only front glasses are really breakable through handling and install
.
Keep on asking around , they were politely telling you they did
not want to do that job .
If you are putting new seals in , just replace the front glass
.it is probably way past it useful life . You would not drive a tire past
it's wear bars but most people will drive a windshield until they just can't
see through it , kinda like driving around with steel bands showing through
their tires .
Look on Craigslist , there are some competent guys on there ,
you just need to grill them to see if they understand rubber set windows or
not .
Good luck .
